It is hard to excel if you are asleep on the desk, stressed or mal-nourished due to poor food choices. If there was an easy way to be more fit, more efficient at daily tasks, have much more energy, deeper, stronger relationships and more joy and happiness in your life, would you be interested? Do you think it would make a difference in your life or your children’s life? If you answered “Yes!” to any of these, you might want to take our 40 Day Makeover.

Thousands of people participate in the makeover all across the country at the same time. For many of those people, the results are truly life changing! For those of you who think you have seen it all before, here is a brief over view of the program.

The makeover consists of 6 once per week meetings. Each session focuses on a different part of living. The first week looks at time management using a very different technology than the usual writing a list, prioritizing it and hoping for the best. It is easy to use and far more effective. Without proper time management, there is never enough time to shop for the right food, prepare it, work out or build relationships. It is the key to being successful at anything.

The second week centers on fast, efficient workouts. You will learn how to calculate your own, individual fat burning zone and how to stay in it for maximum results. You will learn the secret of building muscle while burning body fat.

The third week discusses one of the biggest problems in this country, insulin resistance. If you are a man with a waist bigger than 40 inches or a woman with a waist bigger than 34½ inches, you are probably insulin resistant and losing weight for you is almost impossible. If you actually do lose weight, it is very difficult to keep it off. New cutting edge technology to turn this around is fully explained and the weight peels off and stays off once this is accomplished! You will also understand why just counting calories is not sustainable and not efficient at burning fat. You CAN eat like an elephant and look like a gazelle!

The fourth week looks at what can be done to stay as young as possible for as long as possible. You will learn how to keep your body parts running at close to 100% for your entire life. Remember, you don’t catch high cholesterol, heart attacks, diabetes, thyroid problems, cancer, depression or fatigue from anybody! It is your own body parts that break down and cause these things.

Week five takes a new perspective on stress management. Rather than manage stress, ways to prevent stress in the first place are discussed. It is amazingly simple when you understand some basic principles!

Week six wraps everything up with how to have more joy and peace in your life. It is so easy to be happy once a person sees the difference between what we think makes us happy vs. learning where true happiness actually comes from.

The makeover will be held every Tuesday for 6 weeks, starting Tuesday, March 10th. Meetings go from 7:00pm to 8:30pm and will be held at Cassista Chiropractic.
Cost is $65 per person and includes 6 weekly meetings, a workbook, cookbook, 40 day membership at the YMCA and prizes as incentives. If you bring two paid participants, you go free! Call 978-957-5585 to sign up or to get more information. Your family will thank you.

What Others Say about the 40 Day Whole Life Makeover…

“I never dreamed that in just six short weeks my ‘lifestyle’ could take a 180° turn. I made the decision to eat healthy food. WOW! Little by little I started to feel a bit better…I started to sleep a bit better…my digestive system actually started a routine schedule of its own! I have never been one to exercise, but I started walking with my dog, Pickles. I am not watching the scale so I cannot say as to whether I have lost weight but I can say that I feel different. I have had a few friends who know me well ask if I have lost weight…if that isn’t a boost to the ego I don’t know what is!Read more…

What do I know now? I want a BIG life! I am inspired to continue to improve 1% per day. I know I have some work to do…I am struggling with adding more exercise to my daily routine and gaining a handle on ‘portion control’ on those vacation days from healthy food. I even am looking into becoming a patient of Dr. Cassista so I can be firing every light bulb in my body. I am so grateful to Dr. Cassista and his staff for their support and encouragement. You will never know the profound impact you have had on my life!” – Martha K

“I am very happy that I did this for many reasons. Int the start of this makeover I was in a very bad place in my life. I was literally dying a slow death inside. I was listed as clinically depressed,with high blood pressure and many diseases from my throat to lower intestines. Even though I smiled, you could see it in my eyes. I was not happy and my relationships were also suffering, most of all my relationship with God since my church closed down where I was very active.Read more…

Now I am living once again! I have lost a little bit of weight, my relationships are on a much better note, as is my health. Let me tell you, I am no longer taking medication for acid reflux or my everyday headaches. My arthritis is getting better, blood pressure is lower and I am in a much better frame of mind with no more panic attacks that will land me in the hospital thing it was a heart attack. I am not so angry and feeling abandoned by God. I am talking to Him again!

I have to thank God and everyone involved for this wonderful experience. It truly saved my life!” – Lydia T.

“I really looked forward to every week’s meeting. It was enjoyable and I became very informed about food, exercise, stress management and life. Thank you so much!” – Maureen L

“I found the program easier than other attempts at losing weight. My sugar level went from 6.8 to 6.3!” – Anonymous

“The 40 Day Extreme Makeover course has been a wonderful and valuable learning experience. Topics such as time management, nutrition, proper alignment through chiropractic care, exercise, life coaching, managing stress, are all presented in wonderful detail by Dr. Gerry Cassista. As I travel through all of life’s challenges, and with the many bumps and bruises along the way, it is good to be reminded of how important all of these things are to my overall well-being and quality of life.Read more…

For me personally, it improved my overall situation dramatically. Through chiropractic care I have been able to be relieved of severe neck pain that has been chronic for the past five years. Chiropractic care has helped my body get back to its normal alignment and seems to have reset my whole nervous system back to normal! What a dramatic improvement in a relatively short period of time. This has truly been life changing for me. Living without neck pain means I can enjoy all of life again and it is beginning to happen!

For me the 40 Day Extreme Makeover course has provided me with a roadmap to ensure that I maintain my overall health going forward. It has given me all of the tools needed to avoid a lot of potential health related problems in the future.

I would like to extend a sincere thank you to Dr. Gerry Cassista and all of the office staff. This has been a wonderful, positive, life changing experience for me.” – Donald J

“Dr. Gerry had a great sense of humor and seemed to genuinely care about the people in the program. He was extremely knowledgable and I believe this is the reason the program was so successful.” – Carlene I

“What did I learn? What will I do differently? What has changed? 1%, for 40 Days, that was the goal. I am afraid it is just another goal I have fallen short on achieving. However, it is still a goal. Incremental changes practiced continuously lead to improvements. I have always strived to feed my family well, keep myself healthy, exercise, etc. There is, and will probably always be, much room for improvement. The idea is to focus on improvements and better choices. Eat a little more healthy, exercise a little more and focus on yourself a little bit. Not too much to ask.Read more…

This course has led me to self-examination of what I am doing that works, what I could do better and, most importantly, the importance of striving to improve myself, my eating habits and my overall health. I enjoyed the presentations, the conversations, and information presented. I read the book and plan on re-reading it again, and again. I have learned that eating healthy does not need to be a “big change”; it can be easily instituted incrementally. It doesn’t have to mean deprivation and sacrifice. In fact, it should bring joy to you because your health will improve! Thank you to Dr. Cassista and his staff for a well-run and informative program.” – Deborah J

“I pretty much said it in my essay. I loved the program and would recommend it to everyone! I would even do this again.” – Donna Q

“Nice program. I loved it. Anybody could benefit from it for sure.” – Karen D

“Well organized and presented well.” – Nicole B

“To quote a lyric from a song I just heard recently, “Today is where my book begins, the rest is still unwritten”. Thank you, Dr. Cassista. You have truly inspired at least one life to change for the better.” – Anonymous

“I am very impressed with these doctors that gave of themselves in caring about the human condition.” – Joan R

“I lost some weight and inches but when I went to my nurse practitioner yesterday, my most important change was that my A1C was 5.8. My blood pressure is normal and my triglycerides were within normal limits. You are very funny and very supportive of the people who attend. i would recommend the program to anyone. I will continue on my Body By God program forever!” – Mary Lou B

“I really thought I had it all figured out. I was going to the gym regularly and I know what the right thing to do is. I just had to do it. Well, it turns out that it’s just not that simple. For instance, I was eating the right things, but certainly not at the right times of the day. In 40 days, I lost 9.4 lbs and 10 inches and I’m still going!” – Karen D

“Since I have become immersed in the Body By God program, my anxiety level has significantly decreased. Over the past 40 days, I have not had one problem with my anxiety or stomach, I attribute this to all of the different aspects of the BBG program.” – Justine R

“We have never focused so much time together for something not material, but for our health and for our happiness.” – John and Mary G
